I might pick up this game after the holidays. I'm a big fan of bioware and Star Wars, so I think I'll enjoy the game. From the looks of it, the leveling is almost like a single player game (if you want it to be) and I really like Bioware's stories. So even if endgame is terrible, I could just level one of every class to get the unique stories then just cancel.

I'll start leveling an alt soon. Apparently slicing is where serious credits can be made right now. Need to build up a cash stash.

I'd like to continue giving this game a shot but now it won't let me log in. Not because of account issues though. It keeps telling me the login service is down.

All MMOs struggle the first few weeks. I had problems earlier but it worked itself out. I had to put in a payment type for the next month for some reason.

SONOFABITCH! I ordered from Amazon and assumed it was digital download, but no they are actually shipping the game and it won't be here until tomorrow so I don't have my code yet!

That sucks.

I forgot one of my secret answers and it took me forever to remember it. Next time I give all the damn questions the same answer.

I'm not good at space combat yet. Working on it though. A friend told me the cash and xp are great in it so I'll have to get it down.

Buy the ship upgrades, it makes a HUGE difference.

Installing as we speak. Really pumped. What class is most in demand? Healers?

Healers and tanks are the holy duo as usual.

I assume consulars are the best healers; what is the most effective tanking class?

In this game, some classes can fulfill all three roles (depending on which specialization you choose), and some can fulfill two. It's not like if you choose trooper you have to be a tank, or if you choose consular you have to be a healer. A Shadow consular can actually tank. Republic side right now, the Jedi Guardian seems like the most resilient tank I've seen based on limited exposure. As far as Empire, Powertech Bounty Hunters are tough mother frickers.

ETA: To your healing comment, you'd be surprised. Sawbones smugglers and combat medic troopers make for pretty good healers. I like that the game doesn't lock you into a role depending on what class you choose.

I made a thoughtful, diligent, and strategic decision on what type of class I was going for:

Whatever the frick gave me two light sabers.

I'm a sentinel.

I have a Sith Marauder. It's pretty fun playing a dark side character who jumps at every chance to kill something and can easily do it.

My main is a Jedi Sage but I've been putting some time into my Imperial Agent Sniper. The consular and agent have the best stories in the game, in my opinion.

We should schedule a TD flashpoint get together sometime soon on Bonder Crystal.

Also, did we ever actually create a guild for the board members?

Too much diversity in toon to make one.

Yes we are, if we can get all on one server even if creating alts we can have some epic TD battles.
